The Captain had done it all before, when HE was an Exec learning the trade! Realism is about overall responsibility, not about minutiae. Each to his/her own. Unless you have been in a "real" submarine and undergone a "real" torpedo firing procedure, "realism" is just a joke word...
Thanks for the slam, but I stand by my statement. Unless your exec could figure all the data and have the torpedo ready to fire in less than one second, then the Automatic Targetting option is still not realistic. Good is good, but nobody is that good.
